Wow you had such great advise. Thank you and I knew the albino shark would get big. I tried convincing my bf to let me get a 20galllon long but we have 5 tanks in a 1 bed appnt so he said he would get me the 55 when we move. I also have given fish away when I couldn’t properly take care of them. I have been at this only for 5months now. Never had a tank before. There have been many losses but I’m learning quite fast and in the 2nd month I successfully breeded two bettas and have two babies that are 2months old. They are in a 2.5 long. I will keep up on water changes. About the plants identifications, sorry I haven’t got to that step yet. I research 12 hours at the very least about the fishes every week and am ready to move to Plants. I was thinking of getting a albino dojo loach for the 10 too but would that just be stupid? What’s going in the 10 is Guppys(unless you think they are fine in the 5gallon?), 2 ottos, and 3 corrys. I’m thinking putting a dojo in the 10 would be un wise cause I think they do get bigger than 4inchs long, right? And how fast do they grow? About my 5gallon that is holding the 4guppys, 2 ottos, and 1 dwarf frog that is the kind that doesn’t get bigger than 2.5, would they be ok in the 5 or should I just move them in the 10 with albino and 3corrys as planed before. My bf said he would take the guppys in his 20long but he has tigger barbs. Also his rainbow shark is in there but that shark never eats any smaller fish, shrimp, and doesn’t even harass the female betta. It is 4inchs and 2years old and the personality is a nice one expect when my bf got puffers once and when we went on vacation the rainbow shark killed them both but did not eat them. Those puffers were mean and a mistake anyways.
